When my son turned 3 we designed the first t-shirt together. You can find it here .
It has since then become a tradition for the two of us. He can give me all the details he wants and I make the shirt. He turned 11 today and it’s still important to him that we stick to this agreement.
This year‘s theme was prime numbers. He wanted a large 11 on his chest and several other prime numbers around it.
Here’s what I came up with:

Great tradition and awesome t-shirt!
It looks great on him!
Thank you!
@Lynx I’m so happy he turns into a science geek
@Abbeeroad It’s extremely fun to craft with him. Maybe I should teach him to use the serger. That could take the next t-shirt project to a new level.

that is freaking amazing!!!
I love that you’ve kept up that tradition - and I love this particular shirt!
@Cindy I also hope that we keep up doing that for several more years. He’s a pretty creative kid and it’s really fun to craft with him.
@Wulf it’s my favorite t-shirt pattern with this sleeve and yoke construction. I’ve made it in so many different sizes. You can find it here .
